Aug 8, 2008 On tap at Gino’s East Pizza.
Pours a hazy wheat looking golden yellow. Lighter looking than most wheats though. Small foamy white head that goes away fast. Not a very strong aroma, but some wheat and lemon to it. Not too complex. Pretty wheaty taste with some citrus lemons and a little bit grainy. Overall, a bad example of what Goose Island is to me. I love this brewery, but this beer is just not that good. I understand and support the whole mass producing crappy beer thing to make money, but it doesnt make me feel any better about this beer.

Aug 4, 2008 Bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a foamy head. You know you’re off to a bad start when a beer looks EXACTLY like your urine. Sweet wheaty aroma with some floral and lemony notes. Slightly sweet wheaty malt with a lemony flavor that borders on an annoying sourness. Really bad acidic finish and weird metallic aftertaste. Thin bodied. I bought this with a misplaced reliance on the prestige of the G.I. brand. Waste of money.

Aug 2, 2008 Pretty terrible. Maybe I’m just not crazy about wheat ales, but this one sucked. Sour and boring.
